resulted in him being banned from ever playing football again. At least he should have never played in college again. Not really my usual attitude in life, but I wish him a long, hard rehab from a blown out knee.
I just have this feeling...
Do to gain an advantage, the fake slide got you, eh.
I didn’t know of the play so I looked it up. Looked like a kid playing football to me. Looked like he considered a slide for a small fraction of a second and then upon seeing the open field changed his mind, in the flow of the play, not acting with bad intent. Yeah it was unfair to the defenders. So they’ve since changed the rule to enforce against any action that could possibly be perceived as mimicking a slide. That’s good. Not much more to say.
And he did it against Wake Forest which, given what I know about them now, makes it even funnier.
